I just picked up a new LX2610SU. The dealer price to add a third function is 1900 ish and that is a WR Long kit. I’m fairly confident I can do it myself. Would you buy the WR long kit or the Kubota OEM? From what I can tell the Kubota kit is a little nicer with hard lines and apparently the control head is “better”? both are about 1k. WR long a little less and OEM a little more.

The Kubota OEM kit doesn’t come with couplers. Im planning to purchase the Catawba 55 grapple and can specify 1/2 ag or 1/2 flat face couplers. Im not sure which type to go with and what type to order if I buy the Kubota OEM kit. Any pointers are appreciated. Thanks.

I've had two Kubota third function kits with 0 complaints. Landpride also makes a third function. Is the WR Long a true third function or diverter?

Pretty sure its a true third function.

Has the routing of hoses changed on the OEM for the LX, is that big obnoxious loop still there?

@EC135P3H I installed a summit kit when I had my LX and was happy. There’s a thread around here somewhere with pictures.

Not a snowballs chance I would pay $1900 for that W R Long kit. A $700 third party kit works fine and is easy to install on your tractor.
